Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Thé Noir 29

A chic, introspective scent that weaves dried fig, black tea, and tobacco into a quietly powerful aura. Thé Noir 29 is both refined and enigmatic-signature-worthy for those who crave complexity over crowd-pleasing sweetness.

Our Verdict - Mystère #29

This one's a bit of a wildcard, initially divisive with its amplified opening, but many find it settles into a surprisingly faithful and excellent alternative to its inspiration. Expect a bold start that mellows into something quite special.

Season and Occasion Fit

Thé Noir 29

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Autumn

Also Works:

Winter

Thé Noir 29 is anchored by woody, earthy, and dried fruit notes, making it exceptional in fall and spring when mild weather brings out both its freshness and depth. It is less suited to hot summer days due to its complexity and density, but works well on cooler evenings or mild winters.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Formal

Also Works:

Office Casual

This scent's rich, distinctive character and moderate boldness make it perfect for dates, creative or formal settings, and evening events, while its sophistication lets it work for the office if applied lightly. It is too moody and complex for sporty activities.

Mystère #29

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Autumn

Built for the cooler edges of the year - spring and autumn pair best.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Casual

Also Works:

Formal

Its moderate projection and good longevity make it suitable for a variety of settings. The green, woody, and fresh spicy accords lean towards casual and date wear, though it can certainly hold its own in a formal setting after the initial bold opening subsides.
